Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…It’s official: Sony/Marvel Studios’ “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” has now earned the highest opening weekend in domestic box office history with $360 million, topping the $357 million opening earned in 2019 by fellow MCU film “Avengers: Endgame.”
When “Endgame” was released, it had cleared the previous domestic opening record set by predecessor “Avengers: Infinity War” by $100 million, reaching heights that many in exhibition thought would never be reached again.
But the longtime love for Spider-Man has been further boosted over the past decade by lead star Tom Holland, whose previous “Spider-Man” film “No Way Home” opened to $260 million domestic amidst a COVID-19 variant surge in December 2021.
Globally, “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” earned an opening weekend of $932 million, second highest behind the $1.22 billion opening of “Endgame.”
With excellent audience scores across the board, it is well on its way to becoming the eighth film in history to reach $2 billion worldwide.
